"Jeff and his crew were great. We had a couple companies come out and give us estimates but they seemed to be "guessing" on how best to install a retaining wall to stop erosion. Jeff knew exactly what we needed. They were effecient and cleaned up quickly. The ONLY knock I would have was they worked so quickly, they already had the all the sod laid before I could make sure the dirt had been racked out evenly. We have a few high and low spots in the yard. Otherwise a perfect job! Definitely would use again and recommend to friends."

"Jake took out a tree, regraded the whole back yard (we have narrow side yards and Jake was the only landscaper we called who said he could get equipment back there without going through the neighbors yard and tearing out part of the fence). He put in a pretty rock border, redesigned a flower bed and put in Zoysia sod that everyone else said was too hard to get. And he even fixed the sprinkler system! He was very professional, prompt, and hard-working. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Will call him again when we decide to put in that flagstone patio!!"

"We recently  bought a house built in 1952, and if one could imagine, we are having a lot of work done, which requires us to deal with several different company's. After all the company's we have dealt with, this is the first company that showed up on time. I was very impressed with Chris's work because the wall he built where the door used to be looks like it has always been there. It blends in perfectly. At the completion of the job, Chris cleaned up the area as if he was never there. I  highly recommend this company because he takes pride in his work and is very customer orientated. Plus, I was very happy with the price.

"Green Matters Landscaping laid sod in my yard. This is the second time I have used them and they have done an excellent job on both the sod job and the earlier job of pruning and general yard work. I would highly recommend this company for your landscaping needs."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Yes, to build a retaining wall, a permit is required. Similarly, any repairs or modifications to an existing retaining wall require permits. If the planned wall measures higher than 4 feet, most municipalities require designs and permits come through a licensed engineer. In some locations, if the wall is shorter than 4 feet, a permit may not be required. For the requirements in your area, contact your local government.

Sand and gravel are two suitable options for filling behind a retaining wall. If you’re building your own retaining wall, you’ll complete this part of the process—known as backfilling—after you finish laying the blocks. Make sure not to skip it—otherwise, you could wind up with drainage issues, which can cause your retaining wall to collapse.

If you've decided you'd like to skip the cost of restoring a brick exterior wall after considering whether you should repair or replace brick on your house, you can consider installing fiber cement siding over brick for a cost of $2 to $6 per square foot. When done properly, cement siding over brick offers a durable, low-maintenance option that can actually reduce your home's energy costs. It's also attractive. However, improper installation or installation over heavily compromised brick can cause water damage. 

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.
